The New Jersey School Boards Association believes the state Legislature should act to balance school taxes. State government should provide—on a statewide basis—the equivalent of at least 50% of the cost of public education in the form of state aid to education and school property tax relief. To accomplish this, NJSBA policy supports a reduction in school property taxes, matched dollar for dollar, by a shift to a progressive (that is, a fair) state revenue source.
